Ah, yes, -was just agreeing as I like both cultures and aspects that that might bring to a game. Two totally different approaches. But yes, I think for this game, if you'd want to stay closer to the treasure / warrior aspects, Aztecs would have to be the way of it!… <smile>
this brings up an interesting point in itself. I personally go for games that also give me a bit of insight / knowledge into the subject matter rather than just an entertaining jaunt, if you catch my meaning… I'm assuming you're thinking along these lines as well, for your new version of this one?… I.E. -having some insights about the culture inherent in the game… Anyway, blah blah blah -nuff from me for now. <smile> Thanks for the note and have a lovely evening!… Smiles, Cara :) On Feb 12, 2008, at 1:10 PM, Thomas Ward wrote: > Hi Cara, > Hmm...
